vielen Dank für Deinen Kommentar. Bijan Season ist kompatibel, aber setzt die Bäume nicht so wie handplaziert. Leider habe ich bisher keine Möglichkeit gefunden den wirklich guten Mod von Bijan zu überschreiben. Die Wassermasken habe ich bereits versucht zu verbessern, das Ergebnis konnte mich bislang nicht überzeugen.

Ich werde den Key West Mod komplett erneuern. Geplant sind neue Vegetation, Brücken, Häfen und ein paar Gebäude.
Happy Landings!

I will make a new Mod soon, that comes with better Vegetation, better Marinas and maybe some POIs, if i have time for. This Mod will be fully compatible to "MK Key West" and compatible with MARINAS - BOATS AND PIERS by Mamudesign.

it seems to be that MSFS 2024's SDK is generating that bglIndex.bout.
Both version, 2020 and 2024 are very different in the SDK.
